A recently completed fence and gate commission. The client liked the tall posts – I was going to cut them down to the same height as the fence!.

Been meaning to post this picture for a while – it is a over grown part coppiced/low pollarded part laid ‘hedge’ near Dent (one of my favourite places). Around there most of the hedges are managed which is great to see.

The past months have been very busy from demonstrating gate hurdle making at Penistone Agricultural Show to some interesting commissions. Ive also updated some of the pages (hedge laying, for sale and gates). Some examples below of the kinds of things Ive been up too.

A commission for a garden in Marsden. (needs a latch thens its complete) The area where the gate is (up to the height of the wall) has spent most of the last two weeks under water!!

.

View from the other side. The gate is unpeeled ash. It was given a good soaking of linseed oil and turps mix then once dry given a couple of coats of yacht varnish. Ordinarily I might not use varnish but this has to survive spending time under water. If you are interested in a new gate and/or fencing then feel free to contact me. I am happy to do a site visit to discuss your needs. (Prices start around £60)
